Tris POV-
I am angry at Tobias, angrier than I have ever been before. He could have just left me, he had to let his Abnegation side out. Well, I am kind of thankful, I mean, I wasn't thinking straight. I just panicked. I had to get away from it all. The constant thought that I am not good enough. I could just about handle that, until somebody else had to confirm it. I had just began to believe it wasn't true and they had to ruin it. The initiate was a Candor. But I don't care, he needs to learn when to shut his little gob and if he couldn't do that he should have just stayed in Candor. I mean Christina learnt to do it.
I have been asleep for about 2 hours now and when I awaken, I see Tobias, still sitting next to my bed, just like he was when I fell asleep. Then I notice something. The light glistening off his face which means only one thing, he has been crying.
"Tobias, what is wrong?"
"Well.." He looks down at his shoes, his hand clasped between his legs, his foot tapping nervously.
"Tobias, tell me now what is it?"
"The fall, was worse than the doctor first thought." I knew it, I knew I couldn't have been that lucky.
"What?"
"Well, the doctor told me that when you fell you must have hit your head very hard so they told me they did a brain scan, just as a precaution and they told me that they saw something unusual."
"What was it?"
"Well, I don't know for sure but it basically means you have epilepsy, meaning you are going to have to be super careful whilst being so reckless missie!" He says it in a jokey way, to sound like a stern teacher. I really do appreciate it. I laugh lightly for a short while. Then it hits me. I have epilepsy. This means I could have a fit any minute! Imagine if I was walking along one of the narrow paths near the pit, have a fit, then pull Tobias down with me!
Suddenly I hear a loud bang and hear multiple pairs of feet. It was Christina, Will, Uriah and Zeke.
"Tobias told us everything." Uriah explains.
"I am so sorry." Zeke says even though it isn't at all his fault.
Then I begin to smile, and everyone around me does too.
Tobias POV-
Oh poor Tris. My poor, poor Tris. I love her so much and I know, especially now, that I can't live without her. I am going to have to take extra good care of her to make sure she doesn't do anything stupid, but I am going to have to do it without her noticing. Otherwise she will go mad at me! I start to have a flash back of all the things me and Tris have done together that we probably can't do again.
Suddenly, I hear loud clapping next to my ear and then a loud burst of laughter. I am brought back to reality and I realise I had been daydreaming for 15 minutes and Uriah had been clapping in my face to try and get my attention and that him, Zeke, Christina and ,which I am happiest about, Tris. At first I am embarrassed then to be honest, I realise it is actually quite funny so I laugh with them.
The next day, Tris and I get informed about the fits Tris will begin to have and I get told if they last more than half an hour, to bring her straight down to the infirmary.
A week later, after ensuring she is stable, Tris is discharged from the infirmary and instructed to take it easy. As if that's going to happen. We have to be down to train the initiates in a couple of hours and Tris tells me she is going to go weather I like it or not. I guess that is what I was expecting. For Tris to walk into that training room with her head held high but then low enough for her to look right into the eyes of the initiates and if I was them, I would be petrified! They probably though Christina and Will were bad enough but they have n idea how terrifying and just downright mean Tris could get! I begin to tell her this and I can see she immediately takes it as a compliment and does just as I thought!
When we get back to my room, we both just sit n the bed and look at each other. I slowly, not wanted to startle her reach out my hands so they hold her waist and immediately she leans in and presses her lips onto mine, in that deep, desperate way I so love. Then, she pulls her head back and I see her biting her lip, I have learnt now that this definitely means she is either scared or nervous, both of which are not the response I wanted.
"Tris, what is wrong?"
"Nothing, I was just, well, I just wasn't sure if I did it well, right."
"Of course you did it right! I mean come on, you know just what to do!"
I see her eyes light up and a grip creep onto her face. Then I look at her watch, I left mine in the training room. Sadly, it was time for training the initiates.
Tris POV-
I have been dreading this all day, I am so scared about what the initiates will say or think of me, will they think I am a coward because if they do, I agree. I walk into the room and try to keep my head as high as possible but also low enough so I could, as Tobias said, look into the eyes of the initiates so they know who is in charge. Once I am standing next to Tobias, in front of the intiates, one polite girl, I don't know what faction she is from, asks me if I am all right now and just that question and the question alone made me feel like people actually do care about me. I ask her what her name is.
"I am Melissa, from Amity."
Then Tobias speaks up. "Well, that is how to make friends and not get punched in the face... multiple times." I know who this is aimed at and I think everybody else does too. Then, he turns around and kisses me, right there, in front of everyone. His soft lips crushing against mine. I feel like the only girl in the world. And for once, all the eyes lay upon me don't bother me, well actually they do, a bit. Once a Stiff, always a Stiff! I begin to bite my lip again and then everybody looks away from me and looks at Will, who is explaining the knife throwing activity we will be doing today.
Tobias POV-
Me and Tris volunteer to demonstrate and I through 3 knifes around her head, ensuring the last one nicked her ear.
"That was intentional by the way!"
All the initiates look incredibly confused but Christina and Will are looking at us in awe.
"It's kind of an inside joke, it's how we properly met!" Explains Tris, this time she is the one to press her moist life upon mine.
